i got bad mites and depending on how it turns out i will sell to dispensary 1st but if i have to ill sell to some stoners in my neighborhood but im wondering what would be the best way to hide or get rid of the spidermite webs and spidermites in the buds its really obvious that theyre there. idk if water curing is better or if the mites will eat my buds while they are drying just want some input on what to do. thanks!!

Nothing you can do man,try to get a qtip in there and swab them out. Maybe spray with some mighty wash and kill the mites??

If it's not mites, it's thrips.. .if not thrips, it is gnats. It's game over if you by some chance have all three.. .

IDK if it works for spider mite but I saw a cervantes video where he was talkin bout washing off freshly harvested plants with a mixture of water and peroxide to remove powdery mildew from plants. But like I said don't know its effect on spider mites.

Vacuume them off with the hose connection thingy.. if your buds are halfarse dense & still moist they should be fine.. Suck them btches off.

i would vacuum off as much as you can and then use a product called mighty wash. lots of guys claim to have had great success with it and you can use it late in flower without any harsh residue. good luck.

ya i have a liter of mighty wash left is it really worth it to use it cause i think my mites are invunerable to it ive hit them like 4 times with it this cycle and they seem to be getting stronger. i got about 2 weeks left idk if my plants are gonna make it.:(

god damn dude. i saw that pic. that's pretty bad. i would say harvest early or else you run the risk of other problems down the line. in the future, use neem oil on your vegging plants and you won'thave these problems. i foliar spray with neem oil throughout veg and the first 2 weeks of flower. usually once every 2 weeks. i also spray the tops of the soil every 2 weeks as well. you can do this throughout the cycle though. you just don't want to foliar spray them after the buds start to form. can leave a harsh residue.

harsh residue doesnt bother me im not smoking it. i just want it to look nice for the stoners who do smoke it... if i spray with neem oil now will i get more yield from the plants u think?

you need to cut away ALL of that dead plant matter. that's only making the problem worse. after that i would vacuum the plants and then give them a really good rinse with mighty wash. then spray the topsoil and the lower stems with neem oil. follow the directions on the bottle. keep checking on it over the next week or so. check under the leaves and on the buds. if you still have problems then i would hit the buds with neem oil as a last resort. i think your problem is that the mighty wash is getting rid of the mites on the plants but not getting them out of the room and they are just coming back in a few days. washing them and then getting neem oil on the topsoil and lower branches might help stop that.

after this harvest you should get some doktor doom total release fogger and bomb that room with all the gear (except bulbs) in the room. then get in there and clean everything...the lights, hoods, fans, walls, etc. that and neem oil on the plants like i described before whould help a lot.

also, with neem oil, gotta give your plants a couple hours after spraying before you put them back under the light. if you run 18/6 veg then just do it right before dark cycle.

You don't care because your not smoking it but when those cancer patients are smoking it you don't care huh? You're a prick. Prevent them next time instead of treating after. Disinfect and restart.

I dont really hang out with cancer patients so i dont have to worry about them getting a hold of my product... but ya i will definately be doing the fogger next round and scrubbing all my equipment, the reason i had mites so bad is cause i had to leave my grow room door open to keep temps down because im waiting on one of my buddies to install my ductless split for me. next cycle it will be all sealed up and i will hopefully never have to worry about these damned bugs again!
